Cardboard: Virtual Reality (VR) for Android

Cardboard is a simple DIY enclosure that transforms a phone into a basic virtual reality headset and the accompanying open software toolkit. Cardboard makes it easy for both users and developers to experiment with VR.

This session in Google I/O 2014, Cardboard: VR for Android, discuss how to build immersive 3D experiences for Android. Give a deep dive into 3D side-by-side rendering, head tracking, and user interaction principles. Introduce a new open source VR toolkit and walk through using it to create a sample immersive app.
